The NZ quilting guild has a fantastic quilting challenge on at the moment. The theme is PURPLE. I grew up with a mum that didn't like purple. To her purple reflected death and so I didn't really truly appreciate this colour until I was an adult.
Purple is such a gorgeous colour from the Violets through to the indigos, puces to lilacs and the royal purples to the deep aubergines.
My purple quilt is of a dragon eye.

Today I am going to start the machine quilting, adding further textures and colour to the cloth.
Wow! What a picture - quite scary but it's going to be fabulous. I like painting and then stitching on the fabric and this one is truly amazing. Looking forward to seeing progress.
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda!! I quilted the eye yesterday and it looks amazing :)
